DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Hereinafter, example embodiments of the inventive concept will be described as follows with reference to the attached drawings.

The present inventive concept may, however, be exemplified in many different forms and should not be construed as being limited to the specific embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art.

Throughout the specification, it will be understood that when an element, such as a layer, region or wafer (substrate), is referred to as being “above,” “on,” “connected to,” or “coupled to” another element, it can be directly “above,” “on,” “connected to,” or “coupled to” the other element or other elements intervening therebetween may be present. In contrast, when an element is referred to as being “directly above,” “directly on,” “directly connected to,” or “directly coupled to” another element, there may be no elements or layers intervening therebetween. Like numerals refer to like elements throughout. As used herein, the term “and/or” includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

It will be apparent that though the terms first, second, third, etc. may be used herein to describe various members, components, regions, layers and/or sections, these members, components, regions, layers and/or sections should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one member, component, region, layer or section from another region, layer or section. Thus, a first member, component, region, layer or section discussed below could be termed a second member, component, region, layer or section without departing from the teachings of the example embodiments.

Spatially relative terms, such as “above,” “upper,” “below,” and “lower” and the like, may be used herein for ease of description to describe one element's relationship to another element(s) as shown in the figures. It will be understood that the spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures is turned over, elements described as “above,” or “upper” other elements would then be oriented “below,” or “lower” the other elements or features. Thus, the term “above” can encompass both the above and below orientations depending on a particular direction of the figures. The device may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations) and the spatially relative descriptors used herein may be interpreted accordingly.

The terminology used herein is for describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting. As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It will be further understood that the terms “comprises,” and/or “comprising” when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, members, elements, and/or groups thereof, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, members, elements, and/or groups thereof.

Hereinafter, embodiments will be described with reference to schematic views illustrating embodiments. In the drawings, for example, due to manufacturing techniques and/or tolerances, modifications of the shape shown may be estimated. Thus, embodiments should not be construed as being limited to the particular shapes of regions shown herein, for example, to include a change in shape results in manufacturing. The following embodiments may also be constituted by one or a combination thereof.

The contents described below may have a variety of configurations and propose only a required configuration herein, but are not limited thereto.

FIGS. 1A and 1B are a plan view and a rear view schematically illustrating a light emitting device package according to an example embodiment. FIGS. 2A and 2B are cross-sectional views of the light emitting device package illustrated in FIG. 1A, taken along lines I-I′ and II-II′.

In detail, the light emitting device package 10 may include a light emitting structure LS including a first conductivity-type semiconductor layer 113, an active layer 115, and a second conductivity-type semiconductor layer 117. The light emitting structure LS may be divided into three light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3 by the isolation insulating layer 126. The light emitting structure LS may have a first surface provided by the first conductivity-type semiconductor layer 113 and a second surface provided by the second conductivity-type semiconductor layer 117 and opposite to the first surface. The first surface is opposite to a surface provided by the first conductivity-type semiconductor 113 facing the active layer 115, and the second surface is opposite to a surface provided by the second conductivity-type semiconductor 117 facing the active layer 115.

The isolation insulating layer 126 may extend from the first surface to the second surface to divide the light emitting structure LS into three light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3, and form a continuous structure with respect to the light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3. The isolation insulating layer 126 also extends below a bottom of each of the light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3. One surface of the isolation insulating layer 126 may be coplanar with the first surface.

The active layers 115 of first to third light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3 may emit light having the same wavelength. For example, the active layers 115 may emit blue lights with 440 nm-460 nm wavelength or ultraviolet (UV) lights with 380 nm-440 nm wavelength.

The light emitting device package 10 may include three first connection electrodes 127 respectively provided in the first to third light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3 and connected to the first conductivity-type semiconductor layers 113 in the light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3, respectively.

The first connection electrode 127 connected to the second light emitting region C2 disposed at the center may have a portion extending to cover a portion of the neighboring third light emitting region C3, and the first electrode pad 131 b may be provided on the extended portion. The second connection electrode 128 may be integrally disposed across the first to third light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3. The first connection electrodes 127 may be connected through first through holes H1 in the insulating layers 121 b and 126 to the first conductivity-type semiconductor layer 113. The second connection electrode 128 may be connected through second through holes H2 in the insulating layers 121 b and 126 to the second conductivity-type semiconductor layers 117. The first electrode pads 131 a, 131 b, and 131 c, and the second electrode pad 132 may be disposed on the second surface of the light emitting structure LS. The first electrode pads 131 a, 131 b, and 131 c, and the second electrode pad 132 may be disposed to be adjacent to vertices of the second surface of the light emitting structure LS.

The first conductivity-type semiconductor layer 113 may be an n-type semiconductor layer, the second conductivity-type semiconductor layer 117 may be a p-type semiconductor layer, and the second electrode pads 132 may be a common anode connected to p-type semiconductor layers of the first to third light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3. Alternatively, in an example embodiment, the first conductivity-type semiconductor layer 113 may be a p-type semiconductor layer, the second conductivity-type semiconductor layer 117 may be an n-type semiconductor layer, and the second electrode pad 132 may be a common cathode connected to n-type semiconductor layers of the first to third light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3.

The light emitting device package 10 may include the first and second insulating layers 121 a and 121 b electrically insulating the first connection electrodes 127 from the second conductivity-type semiconductor layers 117 and the active layers 115, the encapsulant part 134 surrounding the light emitting structure LS, the first electrode pads 131 a, 131 b, and 131 c, and the second electrode pad 132, and exposing end portions of the first electrode pads 131 a, 131 b, and 131 c, and the second electrode pad 132, wavelength conversion layers 151 a, 151 b, and 151 c provided on the first to third light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3 and respectively converting a wavelength of light emitted from the first to third light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3, the filter layers 153 a, 153 b, and 153 c provided on the wavelength conversion layers 151 a, 151 b, and 151 c and selectively blocking light emitted from at least one of the first to third light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3, and the partition 145 disposed between the wavelength conversion layers 151 a, 151 b, and 151 c and between the filter layers 153 a, 153 b, and 153 c.

The partition 145 may be disposed on the isolation insulating layer 126 in such a manner that it is connected to the isolation insulating layer 126. The partition 145 may also form a continuous structure with respect to the wavelength conversion layers 151 a, 151 b, and 151 c and the filter layers 153 a, 153 b, and 153 c like the isolation insulating layer 126 forming a continuous structure with respect to the light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3. The partition 145 may be formed such that a portion of the isolation insulating layer is inserted into the partition 145. The partition 145 may include a light blocking material, so that lights emitted through the wavelength conversion layers 151 a, 151 b, and 151 c do not interfere with one another. For example, the partition 145 may include a silicon (Si), a black matrix resin or the like. The first wavelength conversion layer 151 a and the first filter layer 153 a may form the first light adjusting layer 150 a, the second wavelength conversion layer 151 b and the second filter layer 153 b may form the second light adjusting layer 150 b, and the third wavelength conversion layer 151 c and the third filter layer 153 c may form the third light adjusting layer 150 c.

In a case where the first to third light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3 emit ultraviolet (UV) light, the first wavelength conversion layer 151 a includes a red phosphor, the second wavelength conversion layer 151 b includes a green phosphor, and the third wavelength conversion layer 151 c includes a blue phosphor, the filter layers 153 a, 153 b, and 153 c may selectively block UV light emitted from the first to third light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3, and allow red light, green light, and blue light emitted from the wavelength conversion layers 151 a, 151 b, and 151 c to be transmitted therethrough.

Alternatively, in a case where the first to third light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3 emit blue light, the first wavelength conversion layer 151 a includes a red phosphor, the second wavelength conversion layer 151 b includes a green phosphor, and the third wavelength conversion layer 151 c includes a green phosphor having a concentration less than that of the second wavelength conversion layer 151 b, the first and second filter layers 153 a and 153 b may selectively block blue light emitted from the first and second light emitting regions C1 and C2 and allow red light and green light emitted from the first and second wavelength conversion layers 151 a and 151 b to be transmitted therethrough. The third filter layer 153 c may allow blue light emitted from the third light emitting region C3 to be transmitted therethrough.

Also, the filter layers 153 a, 153 b, and 153 c may selectively block a predetermined wavelength region of light emitted from the plurality of wavelength conversion layers 151 a, 151 b, and 151 c, and thus, a full width at half maximum (FWHM) of light emitted from the wavelength conversion layers 151 a, 151 b, and 151 c may be reduced. The wavelength conversion layers 151 a, 151 b, and 151 c may include various combinations of phosphors without being limited to the example embodiments described above.

FIGS. 3A through 9B are cross-sectional views illustrating a method of manufacturing the light emitting device package 10 according to an example embodiment. In detail, the method of manufacturing the light emitting device package 10 relates to a method of manufacturing a wafer-level chip-scale package. Hereinafter, some cross-sections of a substrate (or wafer) will be magnified to be illustrated to help understanding in major process drawings. FIGS. 3A through 9A are cross-sectional views taken along line I-I′ of FIG. 1A, and FIGS. 3B through 9B are cross-sectional views taken along line II-II′ of FIG. 1A.

Referring to FIGS. 3A and 3B, the method of manufacturing the light emitting device package 10 may start with an operation of preparing a substrate 101 on which a light emitting structure LS including a first conductivity-type semiconductor layer 113, an active layer 115, and a second conductivity-type semiconductor layer 117 is formed.

The substrate 101 may be an insulating substrate, a conductive substrate, or a semiconductor substrate, as necessary. For example, the substrate 101 may be formed of sapphire, SiC, Si, MgAl₂O₄, MgO, LiAlO₂, LiGaO₂, or GaN.

The light emitting structure LS may be an epitaxial layer of a Group III nitride-based semiconductor layer formed on the substrate 101. The first conductivity-type semiconductor layer 113 may be a nitride semiconductor satisfying n-type In_(x)Al_(y)Ga_(1-x-y)N, where 0≦x<1, 0≦y<1, and 0≦x+y<1, and an n-type impurity may be Si, Ge, Se, or Te. The active layer 115 may have a multi-quantum well (MQW) structure in which quantum well layers and quantum barrier layers are alternately stacked. For example, the quantum well layers and the quantum barrier layers may be formed of In_(x)Al_(y)Ga_(1-x-y)N, where 0≦x≦1, 0≦y≦1, and 0≦x+y≦1, having different compositions. In a specific example, the quantum well layers may be formed of In_(x)Ga_(1-x)N, where 0≦x≦1, and the quantum barrier layers may be formed of GaN or AlGaN. The second conductivity-type semiconductor layer 117 may be a nitride semiconductor layer satisfying p-type In_(x)Al_(y)Ga_(1-x-y)N, where 0≦x<1, 0≦y<1, and 0≦x+y<1, and a p-type impurity may be Mg, Zn, or Be. A buffer layer may be formed between the substrate 101 and the first conductivity-type semiconductor layer 113. The buffer layer may be formed of In_(x)Al_(y)Ga_(1-x-y)N, where 0≦x<1, and 0≦y≦1. For example, the buffer layer may be formed of AlN, AlGaN, or InGaN. As required, the buffer layer may be formed by combining a plurality of layers having different compositions, or may be formed of a single layer in which compositions are gradually changed.

Thereafter, portions of the second conductivity-type semiconductor layer 117 and the active layer 115 are removed to form an opening so that a portion of the first conductivity-type semiconductor layer 113 is exposed, and a first insulating layer 121 a may subsequently be deposited. One or a plurality of openings may be formed in each light emitting region.

Referring to FIGS. 4A and 4B, first and second contact electrodes 123 and 124 formed of a conductive material may be formed on a portion of the first insulating layer 121 a from which the portion of the first insulating layer 121 a has been removed.

First, the portion of the first insulating layer 121 a formed on the second conductivity-type semiconductor layer 117 is removed, and the second contact electrode 124 may be formed to be electrically connected to the second conductivity-type semiconductor layer 117. Next, a second insulating layer 121 b covering the second contact electrode 124 and the first insulating layer 121 a may be formed. Thereafter, portions of the first and second insulating layers 121 a and 121 b within the opening may be removed, and a first contact electrode 123 may be formed on the first conductivity-type semiconductor layer 113 within the opening so that the first contact electrode 123 is electrically connected to the first conductivity-type semiconductor layer 113.

The first and second contact electrodes 123 and 124 may be reflective electrodes including at least one of Ag, Al, Ni, Cr, Cu, Au, Pd, Pt, Sn, W, Rh, Ir, Ru, Mg, Zn, and an alloy including these elements.

Referring to FIGS. 5A and 5B, an isolation process of dividing the light emitting structure LS into a plurality of light emitting regions and a process of forming a first connection electrode and a second connection electrode may be performed.

Referring to FIG. 5A, an isolation region I may be formed to penetrate through the second insulating layer 121 b, the second contact electrode 124, and the light emitting structure LS between the first contact electrode 123 and the second contact electrode 124. Through such a process, the light emitting structure LS may be divided into a plurality of light emitting regions and supported by the substrate 101.

Referring to FIG. 5B, the isolation region I may be formed in every three light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3. The light emitting structure LS may be divided into individual light emitting chips by the isolation region I. A sub-isolation region Ia may be formed between three light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3. The isolation process may be provided as a process of forming the isolation region I using a blade, but is not limited thereto. The sub-isolation region Ia may be formed through an additional process or may be formed through the same process as that of the isolation region I. The sub-isolation region Ia may be formed to be narrower than the isolation region I.

The light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3 obtained through the isolation process may have trapezoid shapes. Thus, the light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3 may have side surfaces sloped with respect to an upper surface of the substrate 101.

Subsequently, an isolation insulating layer 126 may be formed on the side surfaces of the light emitting regions C1, C2, and C3 and on the second insulating layer 121 b. In FIG. 5B, it is illustrated that the sub-isolation region Ia is filled with the isolation insulating layer 126, but is not limited thereto.

The isolation insulating layer 126 may be formed of any material as long as it has electrically insulating properties, and a material having low light absorption may be used. The isolation insulating layer 126 may include, for example, a silicon oxide, a silicon oxynitride, or a silicon nitride. In an example embodiment, the isolation insulating layer 126 may include light reflective materials and have a light reflective structure. The isolation insulating layer 126 may have a multilayer reflective structure in which a plurality of insulating layers having different refractive indices are alternately stacked. The multilayer reflective structure may be a distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) in which a first insulating layer having a first refractive index and a second insulating layer having a second refractive index are alternatively stacked. The multilayer reflective structure may be a structure in which a plurality of insulating layers having different refractive indices are repeatedly stacked two to one hundred times. For example, a plurality of insulating layers having different refractive indices may be repeatedly stacked three to seventy times, and preferably, but not necessarily, four to fifty times. The plurality of insulating layers of the multilayer reflective structure may each be an oxide or a nitride such as SiO₂, SiN, SiO_(x)N_(y), TiO₂, Si₃N₄, Al₂O₃, ZrO₂, TiN, AlN, TiAlN, TiSiN, or combinations thereof.

Thereafter, portions of the isolation insulating layer 126 and the second insulating layer 121 b may be removed so that portions of the first and second contact electrodes 123 and 124 are exposed through first through holes H1 and second through holes H2. A first connection electrode 127 connected to the exposed first contact electrode 123 and a second connection electrode 128 connected to the second contact electrode 124 may be formed. The first connection electrode 127 may be formed in each of the light emitting regions, and the second connection electrode 128 may be integrally formed across three light emitting regions.

Referring to FIGS. 6A and 6B, a first electrode pad 131 a connected to the first connection electrode 127 and a second electrode pad 132 connected to the second connection electrode 128 may be formed. The first electrode pad 131 a and the second electrode pad 132 may be formed through a plating process. The first electrode pad 131 a and the second electrode pad 132 may be formed of copper (Cu). However, a material of the first electrode pad 131 a and the second electrode pad 132 is not limited thereto, and the first electrode pad 131 a and the second electrode pad 132 may be formed of a conductive material other than copper (Cu).

An encapsulant part 134 may be formed between the first electrode pad 131 a and the second electrode pad 132 to fill the isolation region I (refer to FIGS. 6A and 6B). The encapsulant part 134 may be formed through a process of applying a molding material to cover upper surfaces of the first electrode pad 131 a and the second electrode pad 132 and a process of exposing end portions of the first electrode pad 131 a and the second electrode pad 132 using a planarization method such as grinding, or the like. In order to support the light emitting structure LS, the encapsulant part 134 has a high Young's modulus, and in order to dissipate heat generated by the light emitting structure, the encapsulant part 134 may be formed of a material having high heat conductivity. The encapsulant part 134 may be formed of an epoxy resin or a silicone resin, for example. Also, the encapsulant part 134 may include light-reflective particles for reflecting light. The light-reflective particles may be formed of titanium dioxide (TiO₂) and/or an aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃), but a material thereof is not limited thereto.

Referring to FIGS. 7A and 7B, a process of removing the substrate 101 may be performed so that the first conductivity-type semiconductor layer 113 and the isolation insulating layer 126 are exposed.

A support substrate 140 may be attached to the encapsulant part 134. A bonding layer 138 such as a UV-curing material may be used for the purpose of bonding the support substrate 140. Thereafter, in a case where the substrate 101 is a transparent substrate such as sapphire, the substrate 101 may be separated from the light emitting structure LS through laser lift-off (LLO). A laser used in the LLO process may be at least any one of a 193 excimer laser, a 248 excimer laser, a 308 excimer laser, an Nd:YAG laser, a He—Ne laser, and an Ar ion laser. Also, in a case where the substrate 101 is an opaque substrate such as silicon (Si), the substrate 101 may be removed through grinding, polishing, dry etching, or any combinations thereof.

If necessary, concave and convex structures may be formed on an upper surface of the first conductivity-type semiconductor layer 113 in order to increase light emission efficiency. The concave and convex structures may be formed through a wet etching method using a solution including KOH or NaOH or a dry etching method using an etchant gas including a BCl₃ gas.

Referring to FIGS. 8A and 8B, a partition 145 may be formed between the light emitting regions. Also, wavelength conversion layers 151 a, 151 b, and 151 c, and filter layers 153 a, 153 b, and 153 c may be sequentially formed on the first conductivity-type semiconductor layer 113.
